My annoyance with the unfortunate Nigerian Londoner is that he doesn't want to learn.He still lives in the days when he was taught the different races to be Negroid, Caucasians,Mongoloids etc.Someone even told him how those words originated and even told him to research on it history but he adamantly refused and still feels he knows it all by quoting the advance learner's dictionary meaning of 620BC,because according to him,he lives in "LONDON"[i][/i]

nyabingi: Ojukwu did not just come back from Ghana after the Aburi accord and then declared for Biafra, there was an agreement in Ghana and Gowon after returning to Nigeria refused to meet his own part of the agreement. the same confederated state is what a lot of politicians irrespective of tribes and regions are clamoring for today...the clamor for a sovereign national conference and true federalism points to this assertions!!
Ojukwu was a high Man,he probably was high on drugs when he declared war,his illusions gave him the assurance that he will triumph.
He openely boasted that the Nigerian forces will be surprised,well its either he miscalculated the resolve of the Nigerian state or simply was too egotistical to back down or probably just a rich,high spoilt kid.
